Healthy Hands Hand Ice Pack Wrap – Cold Therapy Gloves for Chemo, Neuropathy, Arthritis & Injuries – Reusable Gel Ice Mittens for Pain Relief & Recovery – Includes 2 Pairs & 4 Flexible Gel Packs (Large) – Perfect for Post-Surgery, Work Recovery & Daily Pain Management

Bought these for my dad to wear to chemo. He says they are comfortable, stay cool for the whole hour he is there and has helped with pain/tingling/numbness from the chemo.*** TIP*** We freeze them over night. The morning of the appointment we put all the ice packs he needs (head,hands and feet) into a cooler to keep them frozen on the drive over and during the appointment before chemo. With doing this they more than last for a full hour of wearing.Purchase 2 pairs of cold therapy mittens for my relative to prevent or minimize neuropathy from chemotherapy. Start wearing them 15 minutes before Taxol and wear them through Taxol. The problem with the mittens is the gel packs optimal coldness last about 20 minutes. I have my relative wear each pair for 30 minutes, then switch to ice bags. The mittens are comfortable, easy instructions. Cold therapy does work.Applys the cold very well. Use often.Great for arthritis in the gandsThese mitts are obviously the best solution out there if you have hand pain. They are well-crafted from quality materials. They feel nice against the skin. The gel packs are shaped to fit the mitts. There's a gel pack on both sides of your hand. Each gel pack has its own pocket, and then your hand goes in the middle, protected by soft cloth on both sides of your hand. The gel packs are in soft pouches that seem somewhat flexible after a few minutes out of the freezer (unlike the typical ones that stay more rigid). They cover your entire hand, and for some, part or all of your wrist depending on how long your fingers are. Possible "cons": They come out of the freezer fairly rigid and it's initially a little hard to wiggle your hand inside, although they become more flexible after a few minutes. You need to freeze the whole shebang together with the gel packs already inside the mitts, because it can be a little difficult to get a frozen gel pack inside the mitt. It would be good if they made the flaps maybe half an inch longer to cover the ends of the gel packs more securely. The all-around coolness is great, but if you have really bad pain in your fingers you're going to want to hold the mitt with your other hand against your fingers to get the maximum coolness right where it hurts. Might be good to have a band of some kind to wrap around the finger part. A couple of good points: I put mine in the freezer for just one hour (usually takes around 5 hours they say) and the one hour made them moderately cool and I got some good relief right away. If you only have one hand that hurts, then you can have a second round with the other mitt later. You can also lay them on top of your forehead for a headache; these are heavy enough to stay put if you're lying down. And if you have a hurt on your knee you can simply lay your hand with the mitt on your knee and it does double duty, cooling both hand and knee. There is nothing else on the market that remotely compares with these mitts, and I highly recommend them. I got the smaller size because my hands are small/medium and there's plenty of room. They cost a lot, but if you have hand pain you will be satisfied with them.Prompt delivery, Good price and high quality, Excellent Condition - NEW, Met expectationsEasily to useThe ice gloves help during chemo treatments by preventing the chemo going into the hands and causing neuropathy or increasing the neuropathy.I like the materials and how comfy it is when wear. It is freezing cold when wear it after putting inside the freezer for overnight. The temperature drop quite fast and it last only like an hour. I did not use it immediately but after travel for like 2 hours before I use them. I bought the extra cool pack, but just noticed that the extra pack has a much larger size compare to the cool pack inside the gloves. I have to squeeze the big cool pack in. Will be good if there is an indication on the same size of the cool pack.
